PowerUsers Logo

I’m still no fan of contests, but after looking at the earlier proposals, I felt an urge to do something. This contest brought you a 15 minute solution. I decided to stay very close to the Ubuntu wordmark. All lowercase doesn’t express power, but staying in line may express belonging, being a part, to not break away. It would have been nice to talk about these things, but no, it had to be a contest and a poll. The solution is so obvious and minimal, I almost, but not quite, feel bad about it. One might complain that it just implies electricity, to which I’d say: yes 😉

I am NOT a designer nor a fan of contests, but may I suggest an idea? What about turning the “w” in power to some kind of “flame”? Another (not so interesting) idea would be to merge the electricity icon into “o”.
